The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Revenue

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. Revenue is recognised when the significant risks and rewards have passed to the customer, the amount of revenue can be measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the company and that the costs incurred, or to be incurred, in respect of the transaction, can be measured reliably.

Property, plant and equipment

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Land and buildings

-

10% on cost, 4% on cost and no depreciation charged

Plant and machinery etc

-

25% on reducing balance and 10% on cost

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost (or deemed cost) or valuation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and fair value less costs to complete and sell, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

Taxation

Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the statement of financial position date.

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

Grants

Grants are recognised in the financial statements in the period in which they are received. To the extent that expenditure for which the grant is intended is not complete at the year end, only the proportion of the grant relevant to expenditure incurred at the year end is recognised.

Grants for expenditure on tangible fixed assets are recognised in the profit and loss account over the useful economic life of the assets.
